Addressing Survivorship Bias in Neurocognitive Outcomes After Early Complex Cardiac Surgery Using Clustering and Propensity Scores

PS adjustment with clustering did not confirm survivorship bias. PS-adjusted models demonstrated stable Full Scale Intelligence Quotient and Visual Motor Integration scores over time, and inconsistent findings for General Adaptive Composite scores. Improved survival after more complex cardiac surgery was not associated with worse long-term neurocognitive outcomes.

Abstract

PS adjustment with clustering did not confirm survivorship bias. PS-adjusted models demonstrated stable Full Scale Intelligence Quotient and Visual Motor Integration scores over time, and inconsistent findings for General Adaptive Composite scores. Improved survival after more complex cardiac surgery was not associated with worse long-term neurocognitive outcomes.
